just pre-ordered the day one edition from Amazon US (no place to get in Australia), i just hope the DLC isn't linked to my US account when redeemed so i can use it on my AU account as well.
JRPG Jungle YOOOOO this comes out freaking Tuesday, 😽 Yeah, I’m In! Thanks for the video told me just what I needed to Know. Enjoy that Like/Sub. Good Looking Out!
JRPG Jungle Really liking what I’ve played so far. Musics good controls while not DMCV or Bayonetta levels of difficulty lol it’s still a FUN ass lil Action RPG. I ended up buying it for $54 US on the PS4 and with the dlc costumes available for an additional $8 I’m Super Glad I stumbled upon such a little hidden Gem 💎. Thanks for the extra push in CRYSTAR’s direction with such a masterful review. I’ll will Definitely be looking to you for more Diamonds in the rough! 👌🏾.
This game looks like a blend of Soul Worker (Anime MMORPG) and Blue Reflection - Kinda looks like Death's End Request as well, the overall aesthetic looks very interesting and the action rpg elements look fun as well. This is why i adore your channel so much JRPG ! You always have a fresh / nuanced take in video topics and this one alike really does help newer fans like myself within the JRPG genre - be hyped and intrigued for upcoming games, amazing work showcasing this game and keep up the great work : )
I agree. This channel is such a sleeper. I'm shocked she doesn't have more subs yet. I was looking at one game an said nope, till she did a little demo review an now I'm sold.
It did remind me of Blue Reflection a little as well! (I also just googled Soul Worker and it looks like I could get dangerously addicted to it lol) Thank you so much always :D
Yeah. For a moment I could have sworn the art was made by huke, but turns out it's done by a different artist named Riuichi. Still the resemblance is striking.
Recently Sakuzyo has release his album of his in this game with the full soundtracks. It an event in Japan called M3 basically a music festival for doujin makers. Recently bought the full soundtrack and loved it. Also u should check out the artist too! Name is Riuichi and has constantly been uploading his art photos Check em out Take a look at リウイチ (@riuichi35): twitter.com/riuichi35?s=09 And also Riuichi also helped Sakuzyo in several album art too especially Angelfalse. So thats why i know the game when it released.
Thank you for this, I will probably pick up the soundtrack soon (I might even talk about it in Quick Takes, if I do I'll give you a shoutout :3) and I just followed Riuichi on Twitter cause his art is clearly gorgeous :)
Hey, you gotta check out sakuzyo, the composer for this game. This guy has done a lot of songs outside the game, some even having appeared in other (rhythm) games with its unique genres and styles. I can’t exactly put it into words, but all I can say is, check him out! (Highly recommend one of the albums, Pop Candy Wonderland, if looking for songs similar to the game)
Thanks very much for the information! I've heard his other music is very good (and similar to Crystar which is great), would love to find his stuff in rhythm games especially :) will check out that album!
This looks incredible!!! May just have to get the JP version as I have fallen in live with the game style in a way I have with Ys VIII and Xenoblade 2. Going to see if it's a voiced game. Didn't like the publisher's previous games but this loks stellar!!
I suspect *emo will be trending again* once this gains popularity in the U.S. I would've been all over this during my teen years, but I'm not interested in crying & depression anymore. I'll still give this game a look, but if it's sadder than Lassie 🐕 (dog movie), I'll quickly drop it.
Don't get me wrong this look beautiful and music fits emotionally, dog very cute and characters look amazing they better share their side of story lol But seeing gameplay disappoint me little, animation looks stiff and combat is Meh - needs more fluidity but I saw players getting knockdown like that can get really annoying real fast.. Regardless still gonna check it out when it releases XD
Oooh! Thank you, I hope that’s a good sign :) they have been dead silent about an English release since last year so I was getting concerned, nice to have a little hope haha
I had my eyes on it for a while but i never payed more close attention to all the information that had been released so far. Your video put all the information in order and made me even more interested about it. I like the colorful style of the game but I'm not too sure if the character designs fit with the tone of the story and setting. Other than that it looks very interesting,hope it comes in the west!
I'm glad I could make you more interested! My goal was to round up all the information to make it easier for people to learn about it, so that's really nice to hear. Fingers crossed it comes over! :D
I hope it will be brought to the west , my proficiency in Japanese is horrible even though I understand it by ear (50% of it). I also hope that they port it to the Nintendo Switch , they need more games.
Looks interesting. I'm not sure if it would make it to the west because it's not the easiest sell to people. Then again conception got an English release so it still might have a good chance
We got summon night 6 an that game is really for the fans. Almost all of the summon night games stayed in Japan. So I would say there is hope for us. Plus jrpgs seem to be red hot again.
Woah this looks pretty cool why had i never heard of it ???? the game kind of reminded me of Blue Reflection kind of looks like the same game engine, i liked it and it looks nice here what i'm really digging is those anime portraits they look really good. The Premise sounds pretty interesting something we don't really see that much a sister relationship hope that gets developed well and that the other people that join our main girl are interesting. Gameplay look fun. Damn this is gonna be a definite buy for me again thx for the info.
also I think the trailer spoiled some of the stories I haven't played it yet but a car drives off and cliff a miscarriage happens so I think its spoiled
Yeah, it looks good enough to import! I'll probably end up playing it since my boyfriend is getting it in Japanese, but if I had the choice I'd hold out because I really hope they release it in the West :333
@@romeyrome3275 for me it depends on how much better my Japanese can get. There's so much kanji I need to learn still. Also I got the new atelier game to look forward to and also plan on picking up the Caligula effect overdose. Then I'm pretty sure we should get cold steel 1&2 by mid 2019.
@@JRPGJungle if I was to have a guess I would say it will get a western release. Since you said your boyfriend is getting it. I'll be looking forward to your first thoughts on this game.
Thanks :) hopefully I can understand enough to talk more about it in detail, but I'll definitely mention it in JRPGs I Played or do a First Impressions if all goes well :))
That White Dog was just too cute. I need this game. :) Jokes aside the style is realy pretty. But I am afraid this game is nothing for an fragile mind. Just from looking at the crying girl gives me a stinging pain in my heart. And i want that dog.....
That dog is adorable haha (so fluffy looking!!) And it will definitely be an emotional story for sure, yeah. But at least there's a cute dog to lighten the mood :D
You really need to be able to read Japanese for this game since the most exciting part of the game going to be the story , which is written by Naoki Hisaya (writer of Kanon) , I highly doubt this game will get localized to the west. :P
Definitely needs some Japanese to understand this one cause there's lots of deep story stuff, yeah. But I'm really hopeful it'll get localised if it's good :) I'll probably try it either way, but I would love for more people to be able to try it too :)
It's published by Spike Chunsoft (in partnership with FuRyu who published it in Japan), but was developed by Gemdrops Studio. As a Danganronpa fan, I feel like it still has that deep, dark feel I like in Spike Chunsoft games though :)
It's PS4 only right now, would love to see it on Switch of course, but it looks 60 fps in some of its videos so I'd probably play it on PS4 anyway :3 but I love anything on Switch! haha
It seems they're doing a dub in the English release (Spike Chunsoft said they'll have fully localised English text and audio), so I think we'll get them :D
@@JRPGJungle Now we just gotta worry how much its going to get butchered thanks to Sony, I'll be getting the pc version but its most likely the pc version will be a ps4 port like Zanki Zero was.
what is it with this jrpgs and their need to get into an "enhanced state" using some extra like tears(sadness) in this, blood/rage in mary skelter or glitching/bugs in death end re quest
Part of me is glad I clicked on this video because now I'm actively looking up prices for a PS4 because I REALLY want to play this. The other part of me is annoyed I clicked on this video because the game isn't in English yet and I don't know Japanese so it's gonna be a bit of a crap shoot on if it gets localized or not. Oh the double edged sword of video games
Oh it's this old? I hope the dungeons are better than in games like Fairy Fencer. I kind of disliked how empty or unimportant they felt. In Tokyo Mirrage Session they were at least a bit better or in Persona. I'm not sure if I can say how JRPG often look like with their dungeon building and everything but I hope these where just bad examples I had and the game will be good.
Looking too much into fictional characters my dude. If someone wants to commit suicide via wrists cut, they won't suddenly decide to do it by watching a jrpg with a sad story and wrist symbol
@@MetanteiTriforce Again though if a person was thinking about doing it they would do it. A jrpg wouldn't suddenly make them go through with it. If it did that person was very susceptible to anything from the get go.
Yeah in proper reviews of this game it gets blasted for boring and repetitive combat...well it gets blasted for boring and repetitive everything, really.
Such a shame. I love the company making this and it sounds like a really cool concept and story, but It is ruined by just being another Japanese girl cast only game. Mix up the cast and it would be a day one buy for sure.
I played it. It's on the easy side so don't bother if you're expecting Nocturne or Souls. Also, stay away if you're allergic to cute girls and must have beefy men to satisfy your insecurities.
Crystar is now announced for the West for August 27th 2019! :D (thank you to everyone who let me know!!)
I actually came to this video to see if it was worth it or not

Yeah. For a moment I could have sworn the art was made by huke, but turns out it's done by a different artist named Riuichi. Still the resemblance is striking.
What a gem of a find! Crystar is on my radar :)
Yay! Hopefully it comes over :)
Thanks of putting this on my radar
All good, thank you for watching!! :) let’s hope it gets localised ^__^
Magi Modoka May Cry?
Sign me up
I imagine this is what they are doing in the Velvet Room when youre not.
I'm getting black rock shooter, monogatari series and Alice: Madness returns vibes from this.
It’s coming to switch this month!!!

Thank you! :)
The artstyle is absolutely gorgeous! My god!
Again, you bet your asses I'll play this goddamn game.
i'm not complaining about the art.. but that's how shaft draw it.. kinda unique i think
Awesome overview definitely picking it up thanks to you 👍🏾
Hope you enjoy it when it's out! :)
I think I just found what I want to play after Persona 5 Royal!
This looks incredible!!! May just have to get the JP version as I have fallen in live with the game style in a way I have with Ys VIII and Xenoblade 2. Going to see if it's a voiced game. Didn't like the publisher's previous games but this loks stellar!!
I'd definitely put this on my wish list if it comes to steam. Also, I'd be amazing if you did more videos like this one!
Thank you! I'd definitely like to do another like this the next time something catches my eye the same way Crystar did :D
Holy shit! This year is an rpg smorgasbord! I had no clue this existed, but this might have to get copped.
I suspect *emo will be trending again* once this gains popularity in the U.S. I would've been all over this during my teen years, but I'm not interested in crying & depression anymore. I'll still give this game a look, but if it's sadder than Lassie 🐕 (dog movie), I'll quickly drop it.
Just known the game from Sakuzyo's albums
As a crybaby and also a lover of girl-casts anime such as Madoka and Black Rock Shooter I have to say this game is 100% MY JAM! Cant wait for it! ♥
English version (PS4 / Steam) release date: 27th Aug 2019, with English / Japanese voice.
damn i was gona say that xd
Thank you for putting that update! Didn’t know about the demo, thank you :) will definitely play that!
Oh sorry, I made a mistake, the demo was for Zanki Zero: Last Beginning, too excited for the crystar announcement and didn't read very well lol.
@5:23 Looks like the art from The Liar Princess and The Blind Prince
Just announced yesterday :)
Excited :D

Chinese / Korean version will be released in April 2019, published by Arc System Works, so I guess they will probably localize the game to the west.

also I think the trailer spoiled some of the stories I haven't played it yet but a car drives off and cliff a miscarriage happens so I think its spoiled
Reminds me of Exist Archive ,with the 3-D art style.
SHAFT+BlackRockShooter+FGOExtella+Graphics+Gorgeous Character Design
+Background Scenery+The Sakuga Opening by Shaft+ The cool designed Mobs=Must Buy
Who else came here after watching the PS4 USA Trailer for it?
the first video that popped up was this one after seeing the trailer
That butterfly almost made me think that it was something Persona, don’t ask me why
